No.
Do not confuse God with His Creation.
God is:
+ The infinite divine being
+ One in being yet three Persons:
. + Father
. + Son
. + Holy Spirit
God has revealed himself as:
+ The "One who is"
+ Truth
+ Creator of all that is
+ The author of divine revelation
+ The source of salvation
And, of course, God is love.

With love in Christ.

G_D's real name is YHWH. Most assume this is just the name of the Hebrew G_D. But this name is the oldest name on earth for G_D that is found. Even older than the Sumerian tablets and found on what is called keystones in Native American items.
Long ago, people thought it was wrong to say G_Ds personal name so they created the word, God (eli

God is a word for thick people to use to explain away things they can`t understand it so easy when you just say God did it. Another word thick people seem to like is conspiracy theory that also makes all the awkward questions go away

God, being a myth, is really just a word you can personally define any way you want. And that seems to be exactly what most people do, regardless of religion.

God is a concept, an idea, a notion in our heads. God does not exist in a real sense, only in concept. The word, 'god' is and was used by many peoples and cultures in different ways and for different things. Sometimes to influence people to live by a moral code, sometimes to give them an explanation for the world around them, sometimes to subjugate and control them. Still, it is just a word.
